Where we created those Michael Bublé’s It’s Time album YouTube “audio only part of video” links within the QuickTime Player Camera Filters Recording Primer Tutorial it represented, we believe, the first time for us regarding …
- Google Chrome tests on this macOS Sequoia 15.3.1 MacBook Air involving these class=audioytplay since it seemed to be the case that Live Captions on were the default setting for when Google Chrome detects audio being played and it can feasibly determine the Audio to Text in order to be able to create ticker-tape style Live Captions (and can be configured to not show them too, so we’ve “parked” Chrome as “great, all good and fully controllable as far as the user experience goes”) … but, where we wondered about other web browsers and found that …
- Safari web browser, within the same operating system, relies on …
- macOS operating system version … check
- Chip type … check
- Accessibility settings (ie. macOS Live Captions does not appear in system settings accessibility menus) … we needed research, because we initially found no Live Captions were being played for the same links on which Google Chrome did create Live Captions
… and so that is the topic for today’s research.
Well, we think it happened after following some advice, further down, on macOS Live Captions does not appear in system settings accessibility menus, then changing my macOS System Language from English (Australian) to English (US) …

… and on the subsequent reboot of our MacBook Air, that at some stage the actual Accessibility menu Live Captions submenu started appearing …

… and then, for us, Safari could be categorised to that same “great, all good and fully controllable as far as the user experience goes” as far as Live Captions goes that we’d categorised Google Chrome earlier on. Mind you, the Google Chrome version offers live Google Translate functionality as the Live Captions are presented, which the Safari version does not offer. Anyway, both versions very good!

We’ve spoken before about the wonderful Mac OS X QuickTime Player application, and its use on a MacBook Pro, and its capabilities to upload videos to YouTube.
That’s all fine and good for Movie and Audio Recordings or Screen Capture Recordings related to the MacBook Pro, but did you know you can Screen Capture an iPhone (or iPad) by using a Mac USB white lead hooked up from the MacBook Pro to that other device, in our case an iPhone 6. So we record a session playing the Target Word Game you can read more about at PHP Target Word Game Mobile Friendly Tutorial.
We wanted to thank this great link, thanks, for the idea to use QuickTime Player for this job, never having used that arrow next to the red recording “blob” before. Makes me want to re-view The Blob in case I missed some useful subliminally embedded arrow.

We hope this is food for thought for you.
